Shell Creek Airpark sits in Punta Gorda, Florida. Field elevation is 20 ft MSL. The airport has one runway. Runway 18/36 is 2,600 ft of turf, so plan for soft-field technique and performance checks before you go. There is no control tower. CTAF is 122.9. No ILS approaches are published, so this is a VFR field only.
Pattern altitude is not published. Use the standard 1,000 ft AGL pattern unless the current FAA Chart Supplement or local traffic calls for something different. Published remarks note white cones marking the runway touchdown and displaced threshold areas. They also note a fence west of the centerline near the runway 36 end. The runway 18 and 36 approach paths have 20:1 obstacle notes to the displaced threshold. Glider activity is reported on and near the airport. Keep a sharp lookout in the pattern and on final.
There are no on-field FBOs listed. Contact the airport operator directly before arrival, or call the field on CTAF for current fuel or service availability. For clearance delivery, contact Fort Myers Approach at 239-416-1026. When approach is closed, contact Miami ARTCC at 305-716-1731. If you are planning a first arrival, verify current traffic, runway condition and any local procedures before you launch.
